Trump is not only a unilateralist, he\u2019s also anti-globalist. He sees America at the centre of everything, America first is his mantra.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe current works order as constituted is something he may wish he may want to unravel. of course, there are new forces in the international arena, he even chastised NATO, threatening to withdraw from NATO, when he was president. That is where the unilateralist comes from and at the same time, it also reflects anti-globalist.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhere would he stand then? \u2026His whole life has been nothing but dealing. If globalism will make America great to use his term. I\u2019m sure he will approach it from a perspective that will make America great again. Not necessarily what could be mutually beneficial for all of us and that is the danger.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He warned that the rest of the world would suffer and that Africa would be used as a pawn in the international power play between China and the USA.<\/p>\n<p>He suggested that Africans reconsider their dependence on foreign aid to earn greater respect from the Western world.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you bring Africans into the picture, I\u2019m not quite sure how he\u2019s going to deal with us. So far he\u2019s unable to deal with China. And China is going to continue to explore Africa and elsewhere, it\u2019s going to make Africa more of a pawn in global politics. We are on the chessboard for these powers to play with.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need to build our own base for developments and stop going to IMF to queue. The challenge for us as Africans and Ghanaians is to begin to rethink how we relate to the rest of the world. Our dependence on the global system, we need to delimit our dependence on foreign charity\u2026 Let\u2019s stop agonising and organise.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>#GhanaPolls2024<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>#CitiVerify<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>#ElectionBureau<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u2014\u2013<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Explore the world of impactful news with CitiNewsroom on WhatsApp!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Click on the link to join the Citi Newsroom channel for curated, meaningful stories tailored just for YOU<\/strong>: <strong>https:\/\/whatsapp.com\/channel\/0029VaCYzPRAYlUPudDDe53x<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>No spam, just the stories that truly matter! #StayInformed #CitiNewsroom #CNRDigital<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prof. Baffour Agyemang-Duah, a Governance and Democracy Analyst, has expressed serious concerns about Donald Trump\u2019s leadership approach, cautioning that it could have negative implications beyond U.S. borders.
